When using multiple configuration of the same Terraform provider, what meta-argument must you include in any non-default provider configurations?

The correct answer is A. Alias. This is the meta-argument that you must include in any non-default provider configurations, as it allows you to give a friendly name to the configuration and reference it in other parts of your code. The other options are either invalid or irrelevant for this purpose.
